Haha! Did you see that Kerry ad that begins with Bush in the flight suit? Most voters will think "Gosh, I remember that! How cool to have a president who will land on an aircraft carrier." Then they will see a bunch of close-ups of Kerry in his impersonation of a Basset Hound.

I honestly believe someone in the ad agency is working for Bush incognito. LOL!

I have NO idea why that posted three times. I am on my son's computer, and it behaves squirrely from time to time.

I haven't seen it, but can only imagine that it will work well for the Prez to have lib/dems bring it up - especially if there are military personnel if the same photo with him.

Looks like Kerry's ship is going down....

I suspect the quit in protest after Kerry promoted his hairdresser to campaign manager. ;-)

The career campaign workers tend to be loyal to each other.

Sacking the campaign manager in an insensitive manner was foolish.

Is this the same John Kerry who's a Vietnam Vet who served in Vietnam, but threw his his medals away while protesting the Vietnam War after he served in Vietnam?
